  • Chapter
  • First Online:
A Roadmap to Industry 4.0: Smart Production, Sharp Business and Sustainable Development

Part of the book series: Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation ((ASTI))

Abstract

Industry 4.0 also known as fourth revolution is a new era in which industry will deal with technologies like Robotics, Automation, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and many more. The adoption of robots in Industries worldwide is on the high rise. Robots and human both have their own strengths and limitations. Working together in safe manner both will provide better quality product with high accuracy in less time. The main aim of Robotics and Industry 4.0 is to improve productivity, produce high quality product at low price and meet customer expectation. In this chapter we have discussed role of Robotics and Automation in Industry 4.0, pros and Cons of Robotics in Industry 4.0, various challenges and its applications.
